Should the caption be a figure, table or custom caption? Should the tikztimingtable float or be displayed right where it is?

BTW: If you want the Z character (and z) in black you can change its style, e.g. globally using \tikzset{timing/z/.style={black}} or for a single tikztimingtable using [timing/z/.style={black}] as optional argument.

If you want to typeset the caption outside a floating environment, you can use the \captionof command provided by the caption (or the capt-of) package; the first argument of the command can be figure or table (or any other floating user-defined object), and it is used to decide which name to put into the caption label. Here's a little example:

Another option, would be to enclose the timing table inside one of the predefined float objects figure or table and to use the standard \caption command (now, of course, the timing table will be treated as a floating object):

A third possibility will be to define a new floating environment and caption type for the timing diagrams; this can be done with the help of a number of packages: float, floatrow, and caption. Here's an example using the \DeclareCaptionType command provided by the caption package (the example also illustrates the creation of a new "list of timing diagrams" similar to the list of figures and list of tables):
